With me,...Thank you and thanks for commenting. :-)<br /><br />With me, this year, I've made handmade Christmas cards, crochet items (won't say just what just in case certain people are looking (you know who you are ;-), an apple candle for a co-worker who already got her candle, so it's okay to say, and I'm still trying to decide on poetry, a short story or a song for one person in particular -- or maybe a combination of all three. lol <br /><br />Frankly, it's really taken the pressure off of the holidays. I'm enjoying them more so.<br /><br />You know, I used to try to get my dad to just make me something for Christmas, but he always insisted on purchasing stuff for me. But out of all of that stuff, the things that have stayed with me are his carvings, small boxes and other handmade items. They're so much more personal and really hold up to the test of time.Lee Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06405625473658455042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632667047065031899.post-52200790118183223332011-12-10T06:36:02.132-05:002011-12-10T06:36:02.132-05:00Love your choices, again!

In the spirit of non-commercialism, this year, I made my own cards; and for gifts for the families, my sister and I framed reverse glass paintings that my mother made in the late seventies. True, we bought the frames but well before the shopping frenzy season. Will be looking for Friday Faves' return!Anne Marienoreply@blogger.com
